Sorry, the text got lost on the last posting. The program is a highly
stripped verion of "sysline".  I wrote this as an exercise to learn some
curses.  I have tried all kinds of shell echo tricks to use the status
line on my ATT 4425 without success.  This program does the job. Putting
the CWD on the stat line is a good idea, its clumsy on the prompt.
